+<purpose>
+Initialize a new project through unified flow: questioning, research (optional), requirements, roadmap. This is the most leveraged moment in any project — deep questioning here means better plans, better execution, better outcomes. One workflow takes you from idea to ready-for-planning.
+</purpose>
+
+<required_reading>
+Read all files referenced by the invoking prompt's execution_context before starting.
+</required_reading>
+
+<process>
+
+## 1. Setup
+
+**MANDATORY FIRST STEP — Execute these checks before ANY user interaction:**
+
+```bash
+INIT=$(node /home/qualia/.claude/qualia-engine/bin/qualia-tools.js init new-project)
+```
+
+Parse JSON for: `researcher_model`, `synthesizer_model`, `roadmapper_model`, `commit_docs`, `project_exists`, `has_codebase_map`, `planning_exists`, `has_existing_code`, `has_package_file`, `is_brownfield`, `needs_codebase_map`, `has_git`.
+
+**If `project_exists` is true:** Error — project already initialized. Use `/qualia:progress`.
+
+**If `has_git` is false:** Initialize git:
+```bash
+git init
+```
+
+## 2. Brownfield Offer
+
+**If `needs_codebase_map` is true** (from init — existing code detected but no codebase map):
+
+Use AskUserQuestion:
+- header: "Existing Code"
+- question: "I detected existing code in this directory. Would you like to map the codebase first?"
+- options:
+  - "Map codebase first" — Run /qualia:map-codebase to understand existing architecture (Recommended)
+  - "Skip mapping" — Proceed with project initialization
+
+**If "Map codebase first":**
+```
+Run `/qualia:map-codebase` first, then return to `/qualia:new-project`
+```
+Exit command.
+
+**If "Skip mapping" OR `needs_codebase_map` is false:** Continue to Step 3.
+
+## 3. Deep Questioning
+
+**Display stage banner:**
+
+```
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+ Qualia ► QUESTIONING
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+```
+
+**Open the conversation:**
+
+Ask inline (freeform, NOT AskUserQuestion):
+
+"What do you want to build?"
+
+Wait for their response. This gives you the context needed to ask intelligent follow-up questions.
+
+**Follow the thread:**
+
+Based on what they said, ask follow-up questions that dig into their response. Use AskUserQuestion with options that probe what they mentioned — interpretations, clarifications, concrete examples.
+
+Keep following threads. Each answer opens new threads to explore. Ask about:
+- What excited them
+- What problem sparked this
+- What they mean by vague terms
+- What it would actually look like
+- What's already decided
+
+Consult `questioning.md` for techniques:
+- Challenge vagueness
+- Make abstract concrete
+- Surface assumptions
+- Find edges
+- Reveal motivation
+
+**Check context (background, not out loud):**
+
+As you go, mentally check the context checklist from `questioning.md`. If gaps remain, weave questions naturally. Don't suddenly switch to checklist mode.
+
+**Decision gate:**
+
+When you could write a clear PROJECT.md, use AskUserQuestion:
+
+- header: "Ready?"
+- question: "I think I understand what you're after. Ready to create PROJECT.md?"
+- options:
+  - "Create PROJECT.md" — Let's move forward
+  - "Keep exploring" — I want to share more / ask me more
+
+If "Keep exploring" — ask what they want to add, or identify gaps and probe naturally.
+
+Loop until "Create PROJECT.md" selected.
+
+## 3.5. Template Selection
+
+**Detect project type from questioning answers.** Look for signals:
+- "website", "landing page", "marketing site", "SaaS" → `website`
+- "chatbot", "AI assistant", "chat agent", "AI agent" → `ai-agent`
+- "voice agent", "phone agent", "call bot", "VAPI", "Retell" → `voice-agent`
+- "mobile app", "iOS", "Android", "React Native", "Expo" → `mobile-app`
+
+**If a project type is detected:**
+
+Use AskUserQuestion:
+- header: "Template"
+- question: "This looks like a {type} project. Use the {type} template? Pre-populates standard phases so you only plan what's unique."
+- options:
+  - "Use template (Recommended)" — Pre-populate phases from {type} template, customize during roadmap
+  - "Skip template" — Build roadmap from scratch through full questioning
+
+**If "Use template":**
+1. Read the template: `~/.claude/qualia-engine/templates/projects/{type}.md`
+2. Store template choice in memory for Step 8 (roadmap creation)
+3. Set `template_type` = detected type
+4. Set `template_phases` = phases from template file
+
+**If "Skip template" OR no type detected:** Continue normally. Set `template_type` = null.
+
+## 4. Write PROJECT.md
+
+Synthesize all context into `.planning/PROJECT.md` using the template from `templates/project.md`.
+
+**For greenfield projects:**
+
+Initialize requirements as hypotheses:
+
+```markdown
+## Requirements
+
+### Validated
+
+(None yet — ship to validate)
+
+### Active
+
+- [ ] [Requirement 1]
+- [ ] [Requirement 2]
+- [ ] [Requirement 3]
+
+### Out of Scope
+
+- [Exclusion 1] — [why]
+- [Exclusion 2] — [why]
+```
+
+All Active requirements are hypotheses until shipped and validated.
+
+**For brownfield projects (codebase map exists):**
+
+Infer Validated requirements from existing code:
+
+1. Read `.planning/codebase/ARCHITECTURE.md` and `STACK.md`
+2. Identify what the codebase already does
+3. These become the initial Validated set
+
+```markdown
+## Requirements
+
+### Validated
+
+- ✓ [Existing capability 1] — existing
+- ✓ [Existing capability 2] — existing
+- ✓ [Existing capability 3] — existing
+
+### Active
+
+- [ ] [New requirement 1]
+- [ ] [New requirement 2]
+
+### Out of Scope
+
+- [Exclusion 1] — [why]
+```
+
+**Key Decisions:**
+
+Initialize with any decisions made during questioning:
+
+```markdown
+## Key Decisions
+
+| Decision | Rationale | Outcome |
+|----------|-----------|---------|
+| [Choice from questioning] | [Why] | — Pending |
+```
+
+**Last updated footer:**
+
+```markdown
+---
+*Last updated: [date] after initialization*
+```
+
+Do not compress. Capture everything gathered.
+
+**Commit PROJECT.md:**
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p .planning
+node /home/qualia/.claude/qualia-engine/bin/qualia-tools.js commit "docs: initialize project" --files .planning/PROJECT.md
+```
+
+## 5. Workflow Preferences

+  // Git Tracking: always committed. Removed as a question — .planning/ must be in git for team collaboration and portal sync.
+]
+```
+
+**Round 2 — Workflow agents:**
+
+These spawn additional agents during planning/execution. They add tokens and time but improve quality.
+
+| Agent | When it runs | What it does |
+|-------|--------------|--------------|
+| **Researcher** | Before planning each phase | Investigates domain, finds patterns, surfaces gotchas |
+| **Plan Checker** | After plan is created | Verifies plan actually achieves the phase goal |
+| **Verifier** | After phase execution | Confirms must-haves were delivered |
+
+All recommended for important projects. Skip for quick experiments.
+
+```

+
+**commit_docs is always true.** Never add `.planning/` to `.gitignore` — it must be tracked for team collaboration and portal sync.
+
+**Commit config.json:**
+
+```bash

+Display stage banner:
+```
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+ Qualia ► ENVIRONMENT SETUP
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+```
+
+**Detect what's needed based on project type and stack:**
+
+Check PROJECT.md and research/STACK.md for:
+- Supabase → needs project creation or linking
+- Vercel → needs project linking
+- Environment variables → needs `.env.local`
+- External services (Stripe, VAPI, etc.) → needs API keys
+
+**Present setup checklist:**
+
+Use AskUserQuestion:
+- header: "Env Setup"
+- question: "Let's set up the development environment. Which of these are ready?"
+- multiSelect: true
+- options (dynamically generated from detection):
+  - "Supabase project exists" — I have a Supabase project ready to link
+  - "Vercel project exists" — I have a Vercel project ready
+  - "I'll set these up now" — Walk me through creating them
+  - "Skip for now" — I'll handle environment setup myself later
+
+**If "I'll set these up now":**
+
+Walk through each needed service:
+
+1. **Supabase** (if detected):
+   ```bash
+   supabase init  # If no supabase/ directory
+   supabase link --project-ref <ref>  # User provides ref
+   ```
+
+2. **Vercel** (if detected):
+   ```bash
+   vercel link  # Interactive linking
+   ```
+
+3. **Environment variables:**
+   Create `.env.local` with placeholders:
+   ```bash
+   cat > .env.local << 'EOF'
+   # Supabase
+   NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL=
+   NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=
+   SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=
+
+   # Add other detected services...
+   EOF
+   ```
+
+   Tell user: "Fill in the values from your Supabase dashboard (Settings → API). I'll wait."
+
+4. **Verify setup:**
+   ```bash
+   # Check Supabase connection
+   supabase status 2>/dev/null
+
+   # Check env vars are populated (not empty)
+   grep -c "=$" .env.local  # Should be 0 if all filled
+   ```
+
+**If "Skip for now":**
+Note in STATE.md: `env_setup: pending` so future commands can warn.
+
+## 9.5. Design Context (frontend projects)
+
+**Check if project involves frontend work:**
+
+```bash
+# Detect from roadmap, requirements, or project type
+HAS_FRONTEND=$(grep -qiE 'website|landing|dashboard|ui|frontend|page|component|SaaS|web app' .planning/PROJECT.md .planning/ROADMAP.md 2>/dev/null && echo "true" || echo "false")
+```
+
+**If `HAS_FRONTEND` is true:** Run `/critique` to gather design context.
+
+Display banner:
+```
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+ Qualia ► DESIGN CONTEXT
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+```
+
+Execute the critique skill:
+1. Read `/home/qualia/.claude/skills/critique/SKILL.md`
+2. Follow its process: scan codebase for existing design patterns, ask UX-focused questions, write Design Context section
+3. The skill persists design context to the project's CLAUDE.md (or `.claude/` config)
+
+This runs ONCE per project. All subsequent `/qualia:execute-phase` runs will have the design context available for the frontend-master skill and the diagnostic design pass.
+
+**If `HAS_FRONTEND` is false:** Skip silently.
+
+**Commit setup:**
+```bash
+node /home/qualia/.claude/qualia-engine/bin/qualia-tools.js commit "chore: environment setup" --files .env.local supabase/config.toml
+```
+
+Ensure `.env.local` is in `.gitignore` (create/append if needed).
